Yeah, honestly folks who didn't live as a music lover through the 80's / 90's probably don't realise just how lucky they are with the interwebs and YT etc.

Mind you, it's not like nobody taped off the radio or copied their mates cassettes / cd's / vinyls back then, anyone who says they didn't to some degree probably isn't being 100% honest, but I can tell you back in the 80's / 90's many of us racked up a huge amount of spending on legit music that nowadays you can just dialup on YT or wherever and whenever you feel like it, and not even have to pay a penny.

Barring any major tragedy, I think they'll start working on at least one more album after SOE even if we won't see it for five years. After 40+ years, I would think it's been hardwired into their DNA to make music.

Yeah that's it, all personal. Post 2000 are some of my favorite albums they have ever done, some people hate them. Thats the great thing, there's no right or wrong just different opinions

Same here, ATYCLB has always been in my top 4 i guess that's my nostalgia album really but SOI seems to be proving to provide strong competition these days, I find less and less faults with it and more to like about it all the time. There's really not many post 2000 u2 songs I don't like.

what they said

"Sometimes, size matters"

did you know

The cover art for No Line on the Horizon is a photograph of Lake Constance, taken by Japanese photographer Hiroshi Sugimoto; titled Boden Sea, it is one of 200 pictures in his Seascapes collection. The image was the inspiration for Bono's lyrics on the track "No Line on the Horizon".
